Modern Bathroom Accessories

For all you modernists, today’s post is dedicated to outfitting your sleek bathroom with all the basics. From classic designs that you’ll find in every issue of Dwell, to inventive uses for objects that are normally found in living rooms, I hope this inspires you to add something new to that hardworking room we start and end our days in.

This design has been popular since it was first produced in 1969 by Anna Castelli Ferrieri. Currently manufactured by Kartell, you’ll find this piece at a number of design shops like Conran. This versatile piece provides a ton of storage under an open vanity or in a corner. You can even stack units on top of each other. Additional colors available at Kartell Los Angeles.

Bathroom shelving almost always looks the same, either floating glass shelves, or wood ledges. In a contemporary bathroom, try this modular shelving system from Blu Dot. The shelves can be stacked, sit side-by-side, or be mounted at random. The powder-coated steel shelves are easy to wipe clean and the wood back panel adds warmth and texture.

For those who splurged on designer fixtures in their bathroom remodel, these collapsible canvas containers are a really good value. They’re also lightweight enough to carry from the bathroom to your washing machine (there are two loops for convenient toting).

These rubber vases are perfect for holding makeup brushes or toothbrushes in the bathroom. The Menu rubber vase folds down for holding smaller objects or with the neck extended, cradles a small bouquet of flowers.
